About

Established in 2017 by Gordon Leney, GL Studio is a London-based architectural and interior design practice with a holistic approach to architecture, interiors and landscape that seeks to enhance and reimagine existing spaces while respecting their cultural and historical integrity.

The studio works in both urban and rural landscapes and in a number of sectors including private residential, cultural, workplace and hospitality. Celebrating the reuse and re-invention of existing buildings and often revealing layers of historical use, they design within context, applying a sensitivity to issues of heritage whilst overlaying a contemporary aesthetic and relevance for modern use.

Their approach is collaborative and analytical, delivering non-formulaic solutions which underpin their clients’ aspirations and restore a sense of authenticity and meaning to the buildings they inhabit.
